Strobe Edge (with Alyssa from Anime Intensity)

Covers all ten volumes of Strobe Edge by Io Sakisaka First: Strobe Edge is an amazing title, and we take many opportunities to remind you of this throughout the episode. How do you not want to read a manga called Strobe Edge? If you need more convincing about how great this work from Io Sakisaka is, Alyssa (who runs the YouTube channel Anime Intensity) and Shojo & Tell host Ashley do a character conflicts rundown, discuss the merits (or lack thereof) of love triangles as a trope (also: Team Ren? Team Ando? Team Daiki? Why not... all of them? Or maybe we should be Team Ninako?), and gush about Sakisaka’s simple yet gorgeous art. LINKS Strobe Edge is available from Viz Media’s Shojo Beat line Yano from Kimi ni Todoke So it turns out Strobe Edge isn’t about disco, but After Hours is a dope EDM yuri manga available from Viz Viz announced that they have licensed Sakisaka’s series Ao Haru Ride (Blue Spring Ride) If you would like to read some more about the “dire geometry of the love triangle” Manga ranking cited for the popularity of Sakisaka’s series Omoi, Omoware, Furi, Furare Heart of Manga licensing information page currently listing Ao Haru Ride on the wish list The anime version of Blue Spring Ride is available on Crunchyroll Love Quiz: Which TV Love Triangle Are You?
